Yeah, for me the mythic is _all there is_ in this story, it's *all* 
mega, ancient and earth-shattering history. And, it's *all* about the 
fake story that grows from the real story, all about the Lie. (And 
the fact that this stuff came from my sister, who works at a Big Oil 
Company in Calgary (in one of those *Big Office Towers*) just 
underscores what is *Really Happening* in the only place that 
matters, the minds of the people.) Did I check to see if it *really* 
is the words of nostro-dead-guy? Are you kidding? (And does this mean 
I've out-obscured the professionally obscure? Kudos to me. ;-> )

There is no doubt that people's family members suffered terrible 
tragedy, that lives were changed forever, and that many (including 
myself ) are deeply saddened. But, punto, this *event* is NOT 
personal. It's about singularity in time and space,  and the 
misquotings of the Ancient Wisdom and other punditry are highly 
instructive in the nature of it's reverberation. When the plane hit 
the tower, reality. All else: Simulacra Mega...

peace _and_ war
